Antiwork

Can’t decide if I should move on or not.

My wife and I live in southern Ohio and have 1 child(3 month old baby girl), I make $22/hr at a job I hate and it’s night shift which I also hate because I never get to see my family(plus it is 1 hour and 15 minute drive each way). My wife is making $18/hr as an LPN at a local clinic (yes I know she could be making more elsewhere but the clinic schedule is ideal for our situation). I am struggling to find a job that is dayshift, closer to home, and similar pay. Should I leave my job now for less money and better work/life balance or just stick it out where I am at now and not take a paycut. We don’t live paycheck to paycheck per say but we aren’t far from it.
